Which Produce Snacks Are Best for Your Teeth?


Posted on 3/22/2021 by Dynamic Dental Office
Which Produce Snacks Are Best for Your Teeth?Before settling for the best snacks for healthy teeth, you need to acknowledge that sugary foods are unfriendly to your dental hygiene, as they provide food for cavity-causing bacteria. Also, sugary snacks pose a health risk to other lifestyle diseases. Therefore, for overall good health, you need to stick to healthy snack options. While doing this, you should also maintain good oral hygiene. Among the produce snacks that are healthy for your teeth include crunchy foods, vegetables, and dairy products.

Crunchy Fruits and Vegetables


Vegetables and fruits are a healthy snack since they are rich in fiber. Fiber acts as a natural toothbrush and cleans out food particles that stick on teeth. Consuming fiber-rich snacks also gives a feeling of satiety, enabling you to resist the urge to snack on unhealthy foods. Chewing fiber also stimulates saliva production in the mouth, flushing out food particles and balancing your mouth's pH; thus, inhibiting harmful bacterial activity. In addition to fiber, these snacks are rich in healthy vitamins and minerals. Leafy greens are rich in calcium, which strengthens the enamel, preventing tooth decay. Broccoli, spinach, and citrus fruits contain vitamin C, which boosts immunity, keeping gum diseases at bay. They also contain antioxidants that help prevent gum diseases.

Dairy Produce


Dairy products such as milk, calcium, yogurt, and cheese are an ideal replacement for unhealthy snacks. These snacks are rich in calcium, which promotes healthy teeth and bones. Besides their natural vitamins, dairy products have fortified vitamin D that further strengthens the teeth. Yogurt contains useful probiotic bacteria that slow down the activity of harmful bacteria in the mouth, and cheese stimulates salivary production, preventing mouth dryness.
Therefore, to enhance your oral health, revisit your snack options and replacing them with the above foods. For more details on healthy snacks for your teeth, contact our office today.
